X-Xiphactinus — Detailed Guide

The X-Xiphactinus is the Genesis Part 1 variant of the Xiphactinus, a large predatory fish. It is a rideable ocean mount with its own color pattern, found in ASA.

Where to find it

It lives in the Ocean biome of Genesis Part 1.

Taming

A knockout tame. It is aggressive and stays in the water, so pull it into the shallows or box it in with dino gateways, then tranquilize it with a crossbow. Feed it fish meat, prime meat or Superior Kibble.

Breeding

  • Egg: hatches in about 5 hours.
  • Growth: a baby takes about 3.9 days to mature at 1x.

Uses

A fast water mount for travel and fights in the Genesis ocean. The Xiphactinus Saddle unlocks at level 55.

Tips

Its torpor drops quickly once it is down, so bring Narcotics, and clear nearby ocean predators before you start feeding.
